Today’s Ryanair Mini-Expansion

Today Ryanair announced three new routes. Two (Cork-East Midlands and Cork-Glasgow) will kick off on December 13. The third will run between Malta and Treviso near Venice. The airline doesn’t offer an official starting date for the Malta-Treviso route, though we found a €.01 fare in early January.

The kicker? That eurocent balloons to €47.13 once taxes are taken into account.
